1.35 Ascot
David & Toni Eyles Beginners' Chase (Class 3) (4YO plus)
Winner £7,507
Advice: 2 pts win Solix
Blues and Two’s: Irish point second who made an excellent
return from a year off over hurdles when winning at Wincanton over slightly
longer than this; Ideal situation for first fencing start with small field but
this also a big task facing some useful recruits
Duke Of Lucca: Very useful hurdler who was once bordering on
top class in novice season; Jumped well enough on chasing debut at Chepstow (a
mistakes 3 out not helping his chances) and should make another bold bid. 
No Secrets: Was deeply impressive on second hurdling start
when hacking up from Yabora with ease and not disgraced when easily beaten by
useful Poungnatch here over C&D two runs ago before successful attempt at
Albert Bartlett Novice Hurdle; Useful recuit.
Solix: French import who was highly rated in France where he
won a Grade Three over two and a half miles at Auteuil, before finishing fourth
behind Bel La Vie in Grade 1 at same track; Made encouraging start to life in Britain
here when running respectably in Totesport Trophy and Coral Cup; Rates a useful
recuit for in form team.
VERDICT: A small but select field. No Secrets and Blues And
Two’s should make good chasers while Duke Of Lucca holds the experience card
over the field but SOLIX is an interesting recruit to chasing for an in form
team and gets the vote.
